Christmas List

Never done this before, but if you feel obligated to get me a Christmas gift (or for my upcoming Birthday) feel free to get me anything off this list. Thanks!

A EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM (Wide angle lens for my Canon)

Been a fan of The Hundreds Footwear for a few years. My current favorite shoe is their Johnson Low (black leather)

An Acapulco Gold New Era hat (size 7 3/4)

Some money for a tattoo from Abraham Ortega (don't think he does gift certificates) would be nice.

A GoPro HD HERO2 set for filming.

Any Rod Powell Original piece of art!

Some Tribal Gear (This Flaks Hoodie is nice)

A gas card to any gas station since I drive so much!

A 1977 - 1979 Lincoln Continental (prefer black but will accept white or tan) And of course I accept cash! Thanks for reading! -Juan

Japan Trip - Nagoya

I have been wanting to take a trip to Japan for a few years now. This year it finally happened! The fellas at Local Hero Japan picked me up from the airport in Nagoya and took me to a few shops before we headed to Yokohama for the 20th Annual Mooneyes Hot rod & Custom Show..

Our first stop was Nico's shop..

The next morning Nico's wife made us a very delicious Japanese breakfast.

There are a lot of cool tunnels in Nagoya, and the roads are smooth (good for scrapin)

One of the shops we visited in Nagoya was Paradise Road, I had the pleasure of shooting Junichi's "Galaxian." As soon as we were done shooting Junichi took us to eat some very good (and cheap) sushi

They kept having me try different stuff. I think I liked every single thing I tried.

Junichi's 63 Impala is not your average Japanese daily driver...

We ended our stay in Nagoya by driving down with Nico in his 39 Master Deluxe to Yokohama... More photos soon... -Juan
